“No item match the current search” for Active Directory printer for some domain user

Re: “No item match the current search” for Active Directory printer for some domain

Server 2003 did have an issue with an underscore _ being used in the Domain Name. Suggest you try adding the SHARE name to Can-3300 and see if that changes things. (Use the same Port for the new SHARE name)

Good shot and worth to try, but do u think if I log in remotley to the server now (via VPN) and change the shared name from Can_3300 to Can-3300 would that affect the domains users that already have the printer ( i.e. loose connection to the printer because name changed ) installed on their PCs ?

tested using SBS2003 and WinXPSP3

while printer was mapped, changed printer name from C240_BW to C240-BW.
Confirmed I could still see and manage the printer on my workstation
Changed name back
confirmed it was still ok.

THat's not to say you shouldn't update your scripts to point to the printer
And that's not to say that next time someone tries to logon and the script points to C240_BW it won't break..

Thanks tehcamel for sharing your experience.

My second question

My client his employees are contractors means every few days he has new employees ,,,,,what I am doing now I have to assign a printer manually for those contractors ,,,,is there any way can a printer be assigned to a domain user (contractors) automatically rather than doing it manually ??
